McCarthy ousted from speakership after Democrats side with Matt Gaetz

The 216-210 vote marked the first time in U.S. history that the House has ever removed a speaker

The other seven Republicans who sided with House Democrats included Reps. Andy Biggs (AZ), Ken Buck (CO), Eli Crane (AZ), Bob Good (VA), Matt Rosendale (MT), Tim Burchett (TN), and Nancy Mace (SC).
